    Abstract: A processing device determines a duration for executing a portion of an erase operation based on a plurality of execution times of erase operations performed on a memory device. The processing device executes the portion of the erase operation. Responsive to detecting expiration of the duration for executing the erase operation, the processing logic executes an erase suspend operation to suspend the erase operation. Responsive to detecting completion of the erase suspend operation, the processing logic executes one or more commands. The processing device further executes an erase resume operation to resume the erase operation on the memory device.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure configure a system component, such as a memory sub-system controller, to provide a configurable buffer device. The configuration buffer device is coupled between a processing device and a set of memory components. The configurable buffer device can be configured based on configuration data to couple a first quantity of front-side channels to a second quantity of back-side channels. The configuration data can be received from an external source, such as the processing device, or can be stored in a configuration register at manufacture. The configuration data can also be generated or determined based on one or more pins of the buffer device that control how many font-side channels and how many back-side channels to enable/disable.

    Abstract: A memory device includes memory dies, each memory die including a memory array and control logic, operatively coupled with the memory array, to perform peak power management (PPM) operations. The PPM operations include receiving a request to perform an operation, determining whether to initiate a PPM priority override procedure, and in response to determining to initiate the PPM priority override procedure, performing the PPM priority override procedure to execute the operation. Performing the PPM priority override procedure includes reconfiguring each high current breakpoints as a respective low current breakpoint to execute the operation.

    Abstract: A memory device protection manager determines an estimated remaining life of a physical memory device. By comparing the estimated remaining life of the physical memory device to a threshold value, the memory device protection manager determines whether a drive protection condition has been triggered. When the drive protection condition is triggered, the memory device protection manager modifies a write performance for subsequent data units to a modified write performance rate. The modified write performance rate is an upper limit on the write performance for the subsequent data units.

    Abstract: A processing device receives a request to perform an erase operation on a memory device. The processing device executes a portion of the erase operation during a first time period. The processing device further executes an erase suspend operation to suspend the erase operation during the first time period. Responsive to detecting a completion of the erase suspend operation, the processing device receives one or more commands directed to the memory device. The processing device also executes the one or more commands during a second time period. Responsive to the expiration of the second time period, the processing device executes an erase resume operation to resume the erase operation on the memory device.
